In this episode of Aging Well With VNA, host Kersten Rettig is joined by John W. Burruss, M.D., Psychiatrist and CEO of Metrocare, for a thoughtful and timely conversation on the powerful connection between mental health and aging well.Dr. Burruss and Kersten explore how mental and emotional health influence both chronological age and biological age, shaping how we feel, function, and thrive as we grow older. The discussion takes a closer look at the often‑overlooked mental health challenges faced by caregivers, including stress, burnout, and emotional fatigue, and how these experiences can affect long‑term health.The conversation also addresses the profound impact of grief on mental well‑being—how loss changes the brain, the body, and our sense of self, and why acknowledging and supporting mental health during grief is essential at any age.Listeners will walk away with practical, actionable advice for aging well, including strategies to support brain health, build emotional resilience, and protect mental wellness through life's transitions. This episode offers compassionate insight, medical expertise, and hopeful guidance for individuals, caregivers, and families navigating the journey of aging.

What do you do when the light refuses to cooperate? In this episode of the Camera Shake Podcast, Kersten is joined by concert photographer Steve Brazil to explore how photographers can create powerful, emotional images in the most challenging low-light conditions.Drawing on years of experience shooting live music, Steve shares how working in unpredictable and often terrible lighting environments sharpens creative instincts, forces faster decision-making, and shifts the focus from technical perfection to emotional impact. The conversation covers low light photography, anticipation, motion blur, embracing imperfection, and why bad lighting can actually make you a stronger photographer.Although rooted in concert photography, the lessons apply equally to wedding photography, street photography, documentary work, and any situation where lighting conditions are far from ideal.If you're interested in photography, videography, or building a sustainable photography business, this episode offers real-world insight you won't get from spec sheets or gear reviews.

Readings for Sunday, February 8, 2026 - Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Year A FIRST READING: Isa 58:7-10 Ps 112:4-5, 6-7, 8-9. "A Light rises in the darkness for the upright." SECOND READING: 1 Cor 2:1-5 GOSPEL ACCLAMATION (John 8:12). Alleluia, alleluia! I am the light of the world, says the Lord. The man who follows me will have the light of life. GOSPEL: Matt 5:13-16 The readings this weekend clearly point us to how we are to live as disciples, to be generous, merciful and just, and to share of oneself, a sharing that hurts and can be a cross to carry.

Agrarpolitik im Fokus: Politik, Praxis und Perspektiven im Dialog In Folge 30 von „Fakten-Futter“ diskutiert DVT-Sprecher Dr. Hermann-Josef Baaken mit Dr. Franziska Kersten, MdB und agrarpolitische Sprecherin der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion. Das Gespräch fand anlässlich der 25. DVT-Jahrestagung in Berlin vor mehr als 300 Gästen statt und fiel zeitlich in eine Phase intensiver Haushaltsberatungen des Deutschen Bundestages und politischer Richtungsentscheidungen. Die Tierärztin Dr. Franziska Kersten bringt als Mitglied des Deutschen Bundestags seit 2021 ihre langjährige fachliche Erfahrung in die politische Arbeit ein und ist jetzt agrarpolitische Sprecherin der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion. Themen waren u. a. das Tierhaltungskennzeichnungsgesetz, Fragen der Tiergesundheit und Emissionen, die Proteinstrategie, Bürokratieabbau, Digitalisierung, Förderung der Weidetierhaltung, die Rolle der Gemeinsamen Agrarpolitik (GAP) sowie Erwartungen an einen fairen Dialog zwischen Politik und Branche. Mit Blick auf die anstehenden Entscheidungen wurde deutlich: Planungssicherheit, Wertschätzung und Vertrauen sind die Faktoren, um Landwirtschaft und Tierhaltung zukunftsfest aufzustellen. Zudem teilt Dr. Kersten spannende Einblicke in die laufenden Verhandlungen innerhalb der Regierungskoalition – ein Reinhören lohnt sich. Über "Fakten-Futter": Als Teil der Wertschöpfungskette für Lebensmittel spielt die Fütterung von Nutztieren und die Nutzung der Agrarrohstoffe eine entscheidende Rolle. Dr. Hermann-Josef Baaken lädt regelmäßig Gesprächspartner*innen ein und berichtet zugleich über Neuigkeiten rund um dieses Arbeitsgebiet.
Neuropathic pain affects nearly 10% of the global population, yet effective treatments remain elusive. In this episode of Spark Time, we sit down with oncologists-turned-biotech-founders Christian Kersten and Marte Cameron of Akigai to hear the remarkable story of how a serendipitous clinical observation led to a new approach for treating chronic pain.From the first wheelchair-bound patient who walked again after EGFR inhibitor therapy, to the 100+ patients who have since experienced life-changing relief, Christian and Marte share the science and the vision behind Akigai's mission: to bring effective, non-opioid solutions to millions living with neuropathic pain. This is a story of discovery, persistence, and hope for one of medicine's most stubborn challenges.
